Hi Volunteers
Here is the signup link for volunteers for the Chicken Ranch Beach Wetland Enhancement native planting project. Perhaps you will have some time to join this crew!
| Planting through December 2026 |
| The Tomales Bay Foundation is seeking volunteers to help plant and maintain 7500 nursery-grown native plants at the newly excavated wetland at Chicken Ranch Beach. Planting is largely completed but we are also waiting for the water level to recede before planting in wet areas. On-site planting is scheduled many Wednesday and Saturday mornings. Volunteer days are being coordinated by the SPAWN nursery. If you would like to volunteer please sign up email khopper below.
